What you think?

Is inclusion of Virar’s villages into VVMC is a bad decision for the villagers or it will open new avenues for the growth of those areas.

Every topics has different sides of problems and opportunities. Lets try to do a SWOT analysis of this decision.

SWOT = Strength Weakness Opportunities and Threats

Hitendra Thakur is the last word in Virar…
In my both trip I heard this sentence many times from different persons. It hurts somewhere… How a person can be last word in a democracy? A person can be  very good in public life, can be good mass leader, can be a real messiah … BUT I don’t think anyone can be last word in every matter in any area. How a person can be above the scrutiny of law?

Most surprising thing about this was the expressions of persons who utter this sentence to me. In most faces it was not the FEAR but RESPECT which was driving them to say such things.

Hitendra Thakur must be interesting person…..

I searched the internet and found a ton of information about him, and almost all of the information depict him in negative shades.

I should write about his other side of life…. Every person has both negative and positive points…. Much has been written about him in negative, I should find something positive….

Is it possible? Does he has done any positive thing to the society of Virar? You people who elect him as their MLA can help me in this… please post your views and experiences with Hitendra Thakur… I want to go to other side of his life….
